Let A n = ∫ tan n ⁡ x d x ,   ∀ n ∈ N . If A 10 + A 12 = tan m ⁡ x m + λ (where λ is an arbitrary constant), then the value of m is equal to
Options
- A10
- B11
- C12
- D13
Correct answer
B. 11
Step-by-step solution
A 10 + A 12 = ∫ tan 10 x d x + ∫ tan 12 x d x = ∫ tan 10 x + tan 12 x d x = ∫ tan 10 x 1 + tan 2 x d x = ∫ tan 10 x ⋅ sec 2 x d x Let, tan x = t ⇒ sec 2 x d x = d t ∴ A 10 + A 12 = ∫ t 10 d t = t 11 11 + λ = tan 11 x + λ 11
